I've posted to one or more of those threads but when you update a recording scheduled to record to either pad or shorten (I did this because I already pad CBS on Sunday night by an hour), you often get the regular recording with no change and a manual recording that did what you told it to do. I've had better luck when editing the recording from the to do list as opposed to the guide but it has happened to me on either method.

I put a call into Tivo support 3 or so weeks ago about the issue to give them a heads up.

Getting back the topic of Roamio update..
I've had my Roamio Basic for a couple of weeks...no problems, no freezing, no reboot. Yesterday, I got the new update and applied it. Last night, two programs recording at 10PM and...voila!, the thing reboots at 10:30! LOst about 7 minutes of the recorded programs while it did its thing. And with the new update that was supposed to have fixed that problem (that others had, but not me). Hope this was just a fluke, but thought I'd mention it in case it's happening to others.

My Roamio and my Mini updated. The only anomaly was the Mini. It hung on the blue circle of bars which appear just before the animation. I waited 30 minutes (knowing it is not exactly snappy) and then pulled the power cord. It then booted normally. Things seem to be decent. Both units upgraded.

Same here.

I forced my Roamio Plus to update the evening of the release (Wednesday evening I think). No problems. Decided to wait and see when my two Minis would update.

Got up this morning (Friday morning) and Mini #1 was updated and running fine. Mini #2 was hung on the blue circle screen. Pulled the power plug, waited 30 seconds, then powered it up. It booted up and is running normally.

I never had any reboots during the last update. But since getting this one, I have already had 2 reboots during recordings. Definitely a step back from the last release. Hopefully TiVo is still working on fixing random reboots because they still exist in this build.

I believe it is fixed in the *next* update. I'm currently expecting that update in mid-December.

Is there a list or post where suggestions can be made for potential changes? For instance, I think Close Caption should be at a fixed location after hitting info, for ease of programming my harmony remote to toggle it. Right now, CC is sometimes 2nd in the list (for recorded shows) or 3rd in the list (for live shows).

Thanks for the information and also for the excellent product. Upgraded from a series 3 and haven't looked back.

My Roamio Pro had been having the video freeze lockup for almost 2 weeks before this update. A replacement Roamio is actually already on the way and arriving on Monday. Tech support had no idea why it was freezing. Since the update it hasn't frozen but it does seem to reboot once a night around midnight.

When I go to bed I watch the musical Jesus Christ Superstar I bought from amazon and is downloaded. The TV is set to auto shut off at 11pm every night and I usually go to bed around 10pm. The next day when I turn the TV on the play list starts all the way at the top so I know its rebooted. Then when I play the Amazon musical its somewhere near the end but at a different spot each time.

I have also tried playing the musical through during the day and went to work and when I come home it hasn't rebooted so I dunno whats causing it. At least it isn't freezing to the point of me having to unplug it anymore and so far I have been lucky it hasn't happened during a recording but that could change.

Now what do I do about the replacement they sent if this is a software issue and not a hardware issue? If the same thing will happen with the new one I don't want to have to do all the setup, settings, copying season passes, transferring shows, repairing cable card, etc.

I have a Roamio Basic and 2 Minis. Like others have reported, the software update caused both of my Minis to freeze on the "blue circle screen," requiring disconnection/reconnection of the power cord. No big deal though. I just assumed it was due to the Mini's losing network connectivity to the Roamio while it was rebooting.

For what it's worth, I 'forced' the upgrade on my Roamio (initiated a manual call, and then reset it) rather than waiting for it to happen on its own.

I noted that both my Roamio Pro and my Tivo Mini had been updated to the new release yesterday. I did need to restart the Mini as it had lost its MoCA connection to the Roamio, all is working well once again....

For the record, I have a Premiere and lately I have been having the same thing happen when I modify a recording. The original recording stays and the modified recording appears as a manual recording. If I have a second recording scheduled, sometimes it gets bumped.
Please fix this bug in the next Premiere update, as well.

when I modify a recording, the original recording stays and the modified recording appears as a [duplicate] manual recording

Unfortunately, this bug still exists in the v20.3.8 update. Since the duplicate doesn’t immediately show up in your To Do list, the best workaround until it's fixed is to "view upcoming episodes" and delete the episode you want to adjust then program that episode to record with the padding adjustment.
